Question

Please give an answer with a calculation and give an explanation of the correct and incorrect option. 

SCENARIO 11-1
A corporation randomly selects 150 salespeople and finds that 66% who have never taken a self-
improvement course would like such a course. The firm did a similar study 10 years ago in which 60% of a
random sample of 160 salespeople wanted a self-improvement course. The groups are assumed to be
independent random samples. Let x and x2 represent the true proportion of workers who would like to
attend a self-improvement course in the recent study and the past study, respectively.
Referring to Scenario 11-1, what is the critical value when performing a chi-square test on whether the
population proportions are different if a = 0.05?
